I NEED ADVICE! My son just turned two months yesterday. He went to his pediatrician to get his 8 week shots but when she weighed him she was very concerned because he had lost weight since the last time she saw him, a month ago. We discussed his eating habits and she concluded that he has reflux. He drinks 3oz of breastmilk every two hours, but often spits most of it up. She said feeding him another oz won't help him gain weight, it will just cause him to spit up more. So she told me to add rice cereal to his breastmilk at every feeding. I've been doing that since yesterday. But now I'm reading online that it's very bad to start rice cereal before 4-6 months . Does anyone have any experience with this?

my son had the same thing except he was prescribed baby zantac and takes its 2x a day. She didn't mention that?
I put a teaspoon of rice in my daughters milk my pediatrician told me a tablespoon but I was nervous so I did teaspoon and have been doing it since she was 3 weeks she instantly stopped spitting up. She has reflux as well but bc she is so young there isn't any medication for her yet the rice thickened the milk to keep it down. She instantly started gaining weight also.
have you tried a nipple shield ?
maybe you should stop breastfeeding. i had to because my son wasnt gaining weight but neither was i because i was pregnant. so they told me to stop and just supplement. maybe you should try your breastmilk and supplements changing your diet as well. whatever you eat so does baby. cokes and things like that effect your milk.
No. He only drinks breastmilk. I just pump exclusively and he bottle feeds it because he can't latch correctly. @thumbalina001
I actually just been told by his doctor he has it and have to get some type of test before given medicine..but my LO is gaining not losing. his doctor said the formula has nothing to do with it but my daughter had this problem but they didn't do a test. they just switched her formula.
so you breastfeed and supplement ?
if your doc said so it should be fine just don't put to much
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
My husband and I aren’t exactly strangers when it comes to relationship challenges 💞. We have been together for 14 years and married for eight, so we’ve definitely gone through some growing pains as we navigated a long-distance relationship in college and our first year living together as a married 👫 couple.
But nothing has challenged our relationship quite like our first year as 👪 parents .
Before you have your first child, you have these grand ideas of what it will be like. There’s more slee...
@itsamemario, you deleted your post before I could hit send but this is my comment: I don’t know if this answers your question but this is my answer.
My son is 7 and he knows race and color. Why? Because he himself comes from a family that is multi racial and because he has already experienced racism. I also believe as his mother it’s my job to teach him color and the cold hard truth about society. He knows what’s going on in this world. I’d be hurting him if I allowed him to blindly walk out...
Dad's FB Video!!
Did anyone see that video a dad posted on his daughters FB page? He saw a post she made where she bashed her parents and cursed them, called them lazy and told them they should pay her for stuff she did around the house... So he called her out on it and put the video on her page!! Sorry if I missed a post already about this already, but I just saw the video and IT WAS AWESOME!!! Hahahhaa!
“You look too young to be a mom!”
Or how about …
“You have a BABY? No! You look like a baby yourself!”👶
Oh wait, here’s a good one …
“Are you the nanny, ooor … ?”
“No, yeah I’m his mom,” I’d reply. “Yes, I am young,” I’d agree.
Considering I got pregnant straight out of college, I was certainly on the younger end of the parenting spectrum. (No one was more surprised than me, I assure you.) And yet, I wasn’t exactly a teen mom. I wasn’t juggling school courses and motherhood, like so many s...
aww.. do you watch what you eat? maybe that's why he's spiting up idk I never breastfeed hopefuly he gets better
